Air Engine
The new AirBagIt.com Air-Engine V-8 Hybrid is the perfect all-in-one valve manifold solution.

The eight-cylinder, three-position, 200-psi, 15mm (3/8-inch) orifice system, does complete FBSS with no assembly required. Fittings and harness are included, so all you have to do is plug in your airlines and you're ready to go. These valves move fast, so it is recommended that you buy Speed Control Valves to adjust your rate and speed of both up and down functions. Available with 1/2-inch and 300-psi setups as well with airline options ranging up to 3/4-inch airline. For more information on this one-of-a-kind system, be sure to check out Airbagit.com.

Titanium Strength
Turbochargers have been known to bake paint off the underside of hoods, melt electrical wiring, airline, and anything remotely close to this high-temperature heat source.

Design Engineering (DEI) has come to the rescue with their new Titanium Turbo Shield with LR Technology custom-fit for T3 turbochargers. Constructed from pulverized lava rock, extruded into fibers and then woven into a tight weave, this material is given titanium-like strength and durability. A high-temperature-rated silica insulation padding serves as added protection to handle direct continuous heat up to 1,800 degrees F (980°C) and up to 2,500 degrees F (1370°C) of radiant heat. This improvement in under-hood thermal management helps keep more heat inside the turbo to spool up faster while reducing radiant temperatures, resulting in cooler air intake temperatures for improved performance and a boost in horsepower.

Livin' Loud
KICKER RS-Series Matched Component Systems use most all of the technologies of supreme QS-Series Systems, giving music lovers yet another source for a complete range of the smoothest, richest frequencies available.

The RS-Series offers a more affordable option for those who seek genuine Kicker high-end performance from their mobile-audio system. The RS65.2 (featuring a 6.5-inch midrange woofer) and RS60.2 (a true 6-inch midrange that also fits 5.25-inch location) let their primary sound flow through speakers that use a polyimide former and copper-clad aluminum wire to help decrease hot temperatures within the motor. Cast-aluminum baskets with nickel-plated, spring-loaded terminals provide additional protection and result in a more durable driver and higher power handling. Each system's 1-inch, high-end tweeter pair with advanced DuPont Tetoron elliptical domes can be installed in a flush, angled, surface, or coaxial mount, the latter allowing the installer to remove aluminum phase plugs from the midrange speakers' centers and screw in special adapters and tweeters.
